IJN CLs Yodo Line - Standard Captain Build
- Torpedo-focused kiting cruisers with powerful long-range torps and a strong HE salvo. High detection on her torps and floaty shells make them difficult to use against aware enemies.
- This build puts emphasis on both of the IJN CLs’ weapon systems in order to maximise damage output in a reasonable way.
- Yodo takes MBM3 in slot 6 to apply more consistent damage between torp salvos.
- Given the rather large size of the high tier ships, their above-average HP pool, subpar agility, and concealment that is too good for the firing range she has, swapping Conceal mod for Steering mod 2 is an option.
- If you don’t have the Hydro mod, use ERP.
- Most ships in the line get 360° turrets; take advantage of this by maneuvering side to side while you fire torps on both sides of your ship. This makes you difficult to hit while maximizing your firepower.
- Applies to Yahagi, Agano, Gokase, Omono, Shimanto, Takahashi, and Yodo.
